The Itsy Bitsy Spider

One of the challenges that T faces is that he doesn't easily imitate actions done by others. This is a huge barrier to learning, and one we are working on diligently. This is why I had to post about this fun thing he did yesterday. He was watching a Blue's Clues video and at the end, the whole gang sang "The Itsy Bitsy Spider" (that was what they figured out - Blue wanted to sing that song.) Thomas watched, looked down at his hands, put his fingers & thumbs in a diamond shape, and sort of bounced them together, all the while looking back to the TV to move along with Steve and Blue. He was imitating! He was!!!
